Customer Reviews

Furies
I am quite new to the Sandman series but i am increasing my collection and i think this book will be a good addition to any Sandman fan or graphic novel fan. This book has amazing illistrations and and a fantastic fantasy story. Those of you expecting another Neil Gaimen masterpiece may be dissapointed to hear that he was a not a main writer for the book but this does not make the book in any way less of a quality Sandman novel. My only real trouble is that you may find it a bit confusing if you are not very familiar with Greek mythology (if you are like me) but overall a very good book.
